Pimalai Resort and Spa offers outstanding appeal for both couples and families, featuring an expansive, picturesque beachfront and a wide range of world-class facilities.
Pimalai Resort and Spa is a luxurious, award-winning resort nestled in a serene, secluded setting overlooking the expansive Ba Kan Tiang Bay. A haven for nature lovers.
Surrounded by 100 acres of lush, untouched rainforest, Pimalai offers an unparalleled sense of peace and tranquility, making it the perfect escape. It also has one of the best beaches in the region—a glorious 900-meter stretch of soft, white sand.
From Krabi Airport, enjoy a 40-minute scenic drive to the ferry point, followed by a 35-minute speedboat ride across the turquoise waters. Note: During the May to October period, when sea swells are higher, transfers may be done entirely by road, taking approximately 2 hours.
Pimalai Resort and Spa consists of 121 deluxe rooms, suites and villas, all dotted around the hillside. All rooms are designed to blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings.
The Deluxe Rooms are located in charming two-story clusters, each featuring sea-facing balconies that offer stunning views of the Andaman Sea
The Deluxe Bayfront Rooms, situated closer to the beach, have an integrated living space. They offer the perfect blend of comfort and style. These rooms are among the most sought-after, so early booking is highly recommended.
For those desiring more space and exclusivity, there is a selection of One- and Two-Bedroom Beachfront Villas, some featuring shared pools.
Elevated high above the main resort, you’ll find a collection of stunning One, Two, and Three-bedroom Villas, each with its own private infinity pool. These villas are extremely spacious, featuring generous indoor and outdoor living areas—all with breathtaking panoramic views.
A convenient buggy service links the villas to the main resort, ensuring easy access to all amenities.
Facilities are extensive and include:
- Several specialty restaurants in differing locations throughout the resort
- Main beachfront swimming pool
- An additional elevated swimming pool for villa guests only
- Spa, Yoga, and wellness programs
- Comprehensive sports centre with tennis courts, gym, and jogging tracks.
- A range of non-motorised water sports can be arranged, subject to weather conditions.
- Dive centre (usually open November to May).
Koh Lanta is one of the most scenic of the islands, with a number of eco-influenced adventure tour options arranged through the resort, including jungle walks, cycling, and elephant trekking.
Koh Lanta is not known for its nightlife. Its main attraction is the gentle charm, the easygoing pace, and the stunning natural attractions both on land and at sea. However, close to the Pimalai there are a couple of simple restaurant options and a few totally authentic atmospheric ‘Led Zeppelin’ influenced, beanie cushioned bars, which make for a fun retro style night out.
The next day, you can soothe those aching limbs with some deserved pampering in the spa!
Pimalai Resort offers excellent all-round appeal for both couples and families, featuring an attractive and expansive beachfront and top-notch facilities
For spectacular views and elegance, the villas are highly recommended. Even the Deluxe Rooms, which have been completely renovated in recent years, are both stylish and conveniently located.
Please note: Due to the presence of numerous steps throughout Pimalai Resort, it may not be suitable for guests with mobility challenges.
The management team, despite being mainly French, are excellent and extremely proactive! he,he…
I saw the resort in June 2019. I have been several times previously, but the recent enhancements are really very impressive. The rooms are much brighter, and the restaurant options are very good indeed—both in cuisine style and varying locations. And the views! My favourites would be the new beach bar, amd the feet in the sand Rak Talay restaurant. I would choose the elevated Seven Seas for its romance and views.
You are truly spoiled, which means you may put on a few pounds. Thankfuly you have great sporting facilities, including bike hire, tennis courts, and seasonal water sports. Let’s not forget the incredible beach.

+ About Krabi, Koh Lanta & Koh Lipe
Krabi is located on the west coat mainland facing the Andaman Sea, and Koh Lanta is linked by car-ferry and/or speedboat. Both are wonderfully tropical, with limestone islands emerging from the generally turquoise waters. Krabi is more developed and has a lively nightlife scene at Ao Nang. Koh Lanta is quieter, with just a couple of good hotels, offering a glorious and real sense of escapism.

All price guides are Per Person Sharing Double Room (Entry level), based on travel between May and/or June when prices are generally at their lowest and include promotional offers. Supplements will probably apply at other times, particularly mid-summer in the Med, and for rooms and/or transfers arranged for single travellers.
For example, the Caribbean and Indian Ocean prices for winter can be approximately double the May - June level and about 50% more in Asia. For the Mediterranean & Canary Islands, Caribbean, Arabia and the Indian Ocean (except Sri Lanka) price guides generally include airfare and transfers.
*For Sri Lanka and Far East we show a per-person, per-night hotel guide, excluding air fare, as arrangements tend to be individually tailored multi-centre itineraries.
